Services - Best Dentist Creve Coeur | Lew Dental Group

'Of course we perform all the services you would expect but we do one thing really well, take care of our patients.' Investing in technology rarely used in typical practices, evaluating lab accuracy down to the the micron and visual simulations prior to cosmetic work are just some of the ways this philosophy is expressed in our practice.

COMPREHENSIVE EXAM

Commonly the first exam you receive with your dental practice could last 5-10 minutes. Not a lot of time for a thorough health history & discussion of your dental concerns.

COSMETIC

In the past decade there has been an interest in cosmetic dentistry. We all realize that having a healthy, bright, beautiful smile enhances our appearance and allows us to have confidence.

BONDINGS/VENEERS

Veneers are very thin pieces of durable, tooth shaped porcelain that are custom made (for the shape and color) by a professional dental laboratory.

BRIDGES (COSMETIC)

A dental bridge is a fixed (non-removable) appliance and is an excellent way to replace missing teeth. Dental bridges are highly durable and will last many years.

CROWNS (COSMETIC)

A crown (or cap) is a covering that encases the entire tooth surface restoring it to its original shape and size. A crown protects a tooth that cannot be restored by other methods.

DENTURES

A denture is a removable dental appliance replacement for missing teeth and surrounding tissue. They are made to closely resemble your natural teeth and may even enhance your smile.

FILLINGS

A composite (tooth colored) filling is used to repair a tooth that is affected by decay, cracks, fractures, etc. The decayed portion of the tooth will be removed and then filled with a composite filling.

IMPLANTS

Dental implants are a great way to replace missing teeth and also provide a fixed solution to having removable partial or complete dentures. Implants provide excellent support and stability.

INLAYS & ONLAYS

An inlay restoration is a custom made filling made of composite material, gold, or tooth-colored porcelain. Porcelain inlays are popular because they resemble your natural tooth.

PERIODONTAL TREATMENTS(NON-SURGICAL)

Periodontal treatment methods depend upon severity of the disease. Your dentist and dental hygienist will evaluate for periodontal disease and recommend the appropriate treatment.

SLEEP APNEA

Sleep apnea is a potentially life-threatening sleep disorder characterized by repeated pauses in breathing during sleep. The term sleep apnea is derived from the Greek etymology meaning “without breath”.

TMJ/TMD

Tempro-Mandibular Joint Dysfunction Syndrome (TMJ) is a common condition affecting a wide variety of people. TMJ is characterized by severe headaches, jaw pain of varying degrees, grinding teeth, and an intermittent ringing in the ears.
